look, the idea that obama's influenced by his father isn't my idea. it's obama's. remember, obama wrote an autobiography called "dreams from my father" and in it he says if even though my father was away, i became obsessed with him. we know from his autobiography that the reason that became the case is that obama's mother constantly drummed in to him the theme that your father's a great man. your father is like martin luther king, he's like gandhi, he's a freedom fighter fighting for freedom in his country. obama always thought although my dad is not here, he's somewhere fighting for freedom for kenya. >> but there are some strong accusations that you make in his film. how do you make that leap to -- to president obama's really, really saying almost that he is anti-american, he is? >> well, what i do is i say what was the father's dream? and i lay out the anti-colonial ideology which obama got not just from his dad but from a series of mentors at columbia, at harvard law school. later if you look at jeremiah wright, there are common themes running through all of th

>> i think mitt romney has it right in the sense that obama care is unpopular. pieces of it might be popular, but mitt romney's been campaigning that he would repeal obama care and replace it with pieces that are popular, but this whole idea about social issues i think is so fascinating and underreported that really it's the obama campaign and the democratic party that has tried to make this a social issues election. even turning questions of taxation into a question of fairness, not one of fiscal responsibility or sobriety because at the president himself said, you don't raise taxes in a recession, and we're still certainly struggling along in this economy. so taxation has been turned into a social issue. we saw in the mid-term election that 31% of gay men and women actually voted for the gop so. what did you see at the democratic convention? gay marriage being touted. finally, on women's issues. if you were to listen to the democratic party, apparently there's some deficit, some sortage sort a -- shortage of condoms, but women care most about the economy. demo
